50. The Pitti Palace was originally built as a palace for Luca Pitti, a wealthy rival of
the Medici.
It was probably begun in the 1450s, so the traditional attribution of its design
to Brunelleschi (who died in 1446) is unlikely; it has also been attributed to
Alberti. It remained unfinished until it was acquired in 1549 by Duke Cosimo I,
who made it the Medici residence and had it enlarged by Ammanati. Most of
the present vast structure dates from the 16th and 17th centuries. The interior
includes opulent decoration by Pietro da Cortona.
The Pitti Gallery on the upper floor in the left wing contains about 500
masterpieces from the Medici collections which rival those of its sister
institution, the Uffizi.
